I tried searching online, but can't find any tube style reservoirs that accept 2 pumps for maximum loop pressure. I have a dual bay xspc res with 2 mcp655 pumps for high pressure but being at the front of a 900d requires a long horizontal tube to reach CPU. It doesn't look as good as a vertical tube hanging to the right of mobo so the loop is nice and compact. The only way I can think to achieve this is 2 tube res, one each split part way thru the loop where pressure drops. I have CPU, 2 GPU, and a 480(top), 420(bottom), and 280 (bottom) rads to go thru. Any ideas or comments? I could rearrange the big rads so the barbs are closer to center point maybe, that seems like to much work for little benefit. Or change to a cube caselabs case, anyone want to trade lol?

Why not just use a res+pump combo and then add a second pump next in the loop?
you could always get a large tube reservoir and then drill+tap three fittings in the locations you want from a solid cap. then take a short run of tubing to the pumps. other option is to go the [H]ard route and make your own reservoir with materials from a place like ePlastics.
1/4 NPT can be used in place of G1/4 if there is enough material around it that it won't crack when a fitting is installed. those taps are less than 10$ at most hardware stores.
